Class CSVFileWriter

java.lang.Object
  org.tbee.csv.CSVFileWriter

public class CSVFileWriter
extends Object

This class provides file level access to write CSV files. It requires an output stream.
The default line separator is per default a newline (\n) but can be set prior to parsing. The field separator can be set in the StringParser using getStringParser(). The parser recognizes comment lines if the first character in a line is a comment marker, default (#). The first line may contain header information. In this case the identifiers are used in the map. The file parsers counts the lines it has parsed according to the line separator.
